Claim 3: “Bank of America initiates Alto Neuroscience at buy”

DISPUTED

The evidence shows that Alto Neuroscience (ANRO) was initiated with Buy ratings by Chardan ($15 target), BTIG ($27 target), and Jones Trading, but there is no mention of Bank of America initiating coverage at a $35 target. The claim attributes the action to the wrong firm and an incorrect price target compared to the available data.
